If You Need
Jude Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Above, above your God is crying
Life is long lassie and remember
Your love lives on in every ember
And if you need somebody
If you need
If you need somebody
Your only consolence is laughter
You store the rest up in the rafters
I only want you to be free
And the road I know is with me
And if you need somebody
If you need
I will be there
I am unfettered by the wear of worlds
And weather is for me the only season
Hush now my love nobody's dying
Above, above your God is crying
I will be there I am at your side
I'll stop the rivers when you cry
And if you need somebody
If you need
If you need somebody
How 'bout me?
The lyrics of Jude's song "If You Need" are filled with comfort and reassurance. The opening lines "Hush now my love nobody's dying, above, above your God is crying" suggest that the listener might be going through a tough time, but assures them that it's not the end of the world. Life is long, they say, and every love lives on in every ember. The song tells the listener that they're not alone and that they have someone to turn to "if you need somebody." The singer offers to be that somebody, to help them store up their sorrows in the rafters and find consolation in laughter, promising to always be there for them.
The song is a soothing, gentle reminder that life goes on and that there is always someone you can reach out to when times are tough. The repetition of the chorus, "if you need somebody, if you need," emphasizes this point and leaves the listener with a sense of hope and comfort. The closing lines, "I'll stop the rivers when you cry, and if you need somebody, how 'bout me?" there is a sense of deep empathy, with the singer willing to make seemingly impossible sacrifices for the comfort of the listener.
The song is a beautiful, heartfelt piece of music that reminds the listener that they are loved and that there is always someone there for them.
